Found this on the official forums, not sure what it means. Maybe they are doing 1 batch a day from now on? Dunno

Last thing. Why aren't we continuing to send waves over time? Two main reasons - one, because we need to see that the servers are maintaining stability over time; adding a lot of players in a short period (in other words, stress testing) can cause stability issues.

Two, our plan is to continue to add servers - but carefully, and in response to demand. We need to monitor that demand and roll out servers accordingly. A long-term recipe for MMO failure is to add a lot of servers early on, and then when population decreases, have to close those servers and merge them together.

I did also see rockjaw say they are inviting more people in today than yesterday, given that i got in yesterday after applying my pre-order code a week after everyone else i woudl say the timeline for people being invited today will be quite exapnsive.

This is what I would expect.To avoid many people getting too upset I would expect everyone to be in by the third day.

according to the forums some folks from mid august (21st) have gotten in on the 2nd wave today. They are likely to do at least another 2 waves today so i would guess the chance of folks up to september getting in today are high.
